Design Option 1 is a single track with a 14’ useable width spanning the initial 4 mile length of the Wasson Way Corridor. The exterior stations are designed with both turnouts and track sidings for future implementation with the I-71 Line to the West and the Oasis Line to the East. Option 1 is significantly less expensive and requires less maintenance than the other four options; however, the maximum passenger wait time is the highest at 18.5 minutes. The single track design would require significant track expansion should ridership drastically increase in the next 30 years.

Design Option 3 is a single track with a 14’ useable width with turnouts and track sidings at Xavier Station, Hyde Park Plaza Station, and Red Bank Station. As with the other design options, Option 3 allows for the future implementation with the I-71 and Oasis Lines. Option 3 allows for trains to be simultaneously stopped at Hyde Park Plaza station should the need arise. Option 3 has an intermediate construction and maintenance cost, as well as an intermediate maximum wait time of 14.7 minutes. Option 3 would require significant expansion in the future should ridership drastically increase in the next 30 years.

Design Option 4 is a single track with a 14’ useable width with turnouts and track sidings at Xavier Station, Rookwood Station, Hyde Park Plaza Station, and Red Bank Station. Option 4 allows for trains to be stopped simultaneously at any of the four stations should the need arise. As with the other design options, Option 4 allows for the future implementation of the I-71 and Oasis Lines. Option 4 offers an intermediate construction and maintenance cost, while being tied for the second smallest maximum wait time at 12.3 minutes. Should ridership increases require additional track, expansion would be required between all stations.

Design Option 5 is a mixture of a single track with a 14’ useable width between Xavier Station & Rookwood Station, a double track with a 27.5’ useable width between Rookwood Station & Hyde Park Plaza Station, and back to a single track with a 14’ useable width between Hyde Park Plaza Station & Red Bank Station. As with the other design options, Option 5 allows for the future implementation of the I-71 and Oasis Lines. Option 5 is tied for the second smallest maximum wait time at 12.3 minutes. Option 5 allows for simultaneous train traffic between the two interior stations. Should ridership increases require additional track, expansion would not be required between the interior stations; however, it would be required at the exterior stations.

Design Option 2 is a double track with a 27.5’ useable width spanning the initial 4 mile length of the Wasson Way Corridor. As with Option 1, the exterior stations are designed with track sidings for future implementation with the I-71 and Oasis Lines. In addition to the exterior station sidings, the interior stations can facilitate two trains stopped simultaneously should the need arise. Option 2 is the most expensive; however, the maximum passenger wait time is significantly less than the other options at 8.5 minutes. While more expensive initially, Option 2 offers greater insurance should ridership drastically increase in the next 30 years.
